Nice a new hotel with professional staff and high standards services and very clean at the moment. Little be problem with parking - to small for the size of hotel and you can’t reserve spot for you, so you never know if you will be happy and get spot, but if not there’s opposite big parking several level with very reasonable prices and collaboration with hotel.

Smaller studio hotel room but great service, staff and modern facilities. Parking was easy to organise on site, in an open area parking lot. Breakfast included , was basic but served buffet style, limited choices but baked beans were so tasty !!! Pool in the 8th floor is a lovely oasis away from the buzz. Gym is tiny but still available 24/7. Beds are comfy, shower has great pressure and able to control airflow in room, not too cold. Our room has general sound proofing on level 2.

This hotel does not cope well with a full house. Staff are polite just not enough of them. No one answers phone at reception breakfast spills out into foyer and meeting room. Breakfast ran out of crockery and cutlery. They charge top dollar for a long weekend so they need to match the service up.

Easy to get via Google maps - although it was hard to figure out where to park to go and check in. The person who checked us in was very friendly, courteous, and also very helpful with dining suggestions.

The staff were welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The breakfast was decent, offering a good variety to start the day. The location is very convenient, close enough to key attractions and public transport. The rooms and facilities are near new, which made the experience even better—everything was clean, modern, and comfortable. Check out was the quickest I’ve ever experienced. Recommend for anyone looking for a hassle-free stay!"
